I will be at Carroll Park at 7:15AM. I don’t know what the roads will look like, but I’m ready to find out. Whatever the conditions are, I feel confident that they will improve as the day unfolds. I expect, that by noon I’ll be happy to have taken off at 7:30.

We’ve got a new all-road version of the route. (see details below) Unfortunately, we’ll have to omit the Matthew Henson trail this year. I think Peary’s dogs and sledges would move better on the trails currently:

Is the ride open to anyone? RSVP required? What’s the pace? Just want to be sure I don’t end up driving from DC to Baltimore and riding alone for 100+. I’m a solid B rider, with a serious lack of consistency in my pace. And I love an adventure! Since there is actual lunch on the route, I’m guessing we’ll get along just fine
